A few years ago I had a similar experience. On the way to work on a really cold, sloppy and wet morning I saw the car in front of me was dragging what appeared to be a coat sleeve from the drivers door. I sped up to get alongside and waved to the woman driver and kept pointing to the road below her. She just put here nose in the air and sped away. She likely felt pretty silly whan she arrived at her destination.

Just last month I did the same thing with an older women when stopped at an intersection I saw one of the tires on the driver's side was almost flat... a blowout waiting to happen. She did roll down the window, stopped to look and thanked me. She then pulled into a dealer service dept right at the light.

I had a blowout on an interstate about 6 or 7 years ago that resulted in damage to my vehicle and another when the wheel flew off. So, whenever I see a person with a low tire I try to get their attention.

Just wondering, in the history of wolf whistles and "hubba hubbas" has any guy ever gotten lucky with that approach? Did any of you ladies ever hear a wolf whistle and decide that was the guy for you? Were any of you guys ever rewarded for a wolf whistle? If not, why repeat a pattern of behavior with a 0% success rate? Could it be because the real reason for the whistle is something else? What? Attempt to get a laugh or reaction? Attempt to demean? Attempt to intimidate? Showing off for friends?

I've seen it 'work'. Go to the strip in Myrtle beach, or even just Brighton Ave. near the bars, get a bunch of drunk college girls who want to have sex together, get a bunch of drunk college guys together, have them cat call at the girls, and as often as not, the girls play along.

Whatever you make of that, it's positive reenforcement for cat calling.
